"You think you can find her?" asked the old man.
"You are in my country, gentlemen, nothing happens here without my declaration," said the old man, smirking.
"I can find my girl," He said getting closer to him.
"You touched something you shouldn't have touched. You will regret it, sir," he said, leaning at His level.
"I did what you asked me and successfully escaped your prison with your wealth five years ago," he said smirking.

They called it a sponsorship program.
Ezra called it vision.
But to Alex, Joshua, and Saaifa-it was nothing short of control.
They were just kids when Ezra offered them opportunity. Prestige. Protection. What they got was manipulation, exploitation, and pain carved so deep, it rewrote who they were.
Joshua lost his sister.
Saaifa lost her peace.
And Alex buried a part of himself so deep, even Bella the girl who sees past his silence struggled to reach it.
Years later, they're not scared children anymore.
They're survivors. Builders. And they're done being pawns.
Together, they'll bring down everything Ezra built-no matter what it costs.
But revenge isn't clean. Truth never comes without blood. And love... love has never been safe for any of them.
Carnation - A story of survival, power, and the kind of love that rises from ruin.

Renegade
They took her sight, her throne, and her trust. But when the storms rise, so does she. Now Eira must choose. Between running and love, between the crown and the one man she cannot lose. They say the island remembers. Its six points rise like blades from the sea, carved not by time but by will-old will, war-forged and sealed with blood. Once, long ago, there was peace. But peace is a fragile lie, and power has a taste too rich for those born too close to thrones. And so the old king fell. A new line rose, crowned not by right, but by betrayal. And from that line came a bride. Untitled, unwilling, and dangerous without knowing it. Her name was Eira. She was never meant to refuse. She was never meant to survive. Blinded by treachery, betrayed by blood, she was given as bait to lure a boy who would be king. But she was paired with another. Chosen. The island woke. And in the dark, where eyes fail and truth sharpens, Eira rose. Not with sight, but with vision. And the island was watching. And love was by her side. This is the story of the girl who failed every test. Until the one that mattered. And of the man who loved her not for her power, but for her resistance to it. Before Eira, there was only fear. After her, nothing would be the same. Note: This is a work of fiction and should not be read as a reflection of the author's personal life, experiences, or relationships.

We Broke
But there was something about Charlotte. She wasn't like the most prettiest girl in the world, but anyone with heart could tell that she had a beautiful heart. A heart that could easily be broken. A heart that needed to be protected. -- Her parents dead. Everything she ever cared for, gone. She lives on the streets, shelter filled with people who want revenge. She's dangerous. Dangerous to even look at. She finds herself registering at a high-school. Broke, orphaned and lost. She's in trouble and she can't hide forever. High school seems like the most perfect place to hide. When the last shard of her past supposedly dies, there's no one to turn to.

Together, they detangle themselves from the mess they are entangled in. Twists and turns strangle their necks, making it harder and harder to breathe. Life falls, and death rises.

Stepbrother's Sin 18+ | Standalone | The Kensington Series - Book 2
Without warning, I reached down and gave her ass a hard smack. "That's for spray painting my car," I said. Her breath hitched, and she bit her lip, trying to suppress a smile. "You're such a caveman." "Caveman? How about this?" I said, smacking her ass again, harder this time. She moaned, and I could feel her responding to me, her body betraying her defiance. 𝐄𝐒𝐌𝐄 I was raised to be perfect. The golden girl. The Kensington princess. Sheltered. Untouched. A good girl with a silver spoon and a diamond crown. But then there's 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐛 𝐅𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧. My stepbrother. My brother's enemy. A man carved from sin, wrapped in arrogance, and dipped in ink. He doesn't ask. He takes. He doesn't chase. He owns. And when he touches me? It's not gentle. It's filthy. It's wrong. I should run. I should hate him. But when he says my name, low and dark, I don't think about stopping. I think about how deep I can fall. Because Caleb isn't just my first sin. He's the one I'll never escape. 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐁 She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. And I was the bastard here to tarnish it. 𝐄𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐚 𝐊𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐨𝐧. Mummy's little princess. The golden girl.

She's innocent, but not with me. I'm dragging her into the dark, making her dirty, making her mine. She thinks she can survive me. Thinks she can walk away untouched. But Esmeralda?

The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.
Enchanted Love: The PAST-The PRESENT
~TOUCH HER AND SHE'LL KILL YOU~ They say the worst pain is losing someone. They're wrong. The real pain is knowing everything - every lie in a smile, every betrayal wrapped in love, every truth people try to bury. I see it all. I understand everyone... except myself. People look at me and see elegance, confidence, sharp intelligence. What they don't see is the silence I live in - a silence so loud it drowns my heartbeat. I used to think someone might come for me one day. Someone who wouldn't fear my mind or my power. Someone who would stay. But that kind of hope died when my parents did. Now I exist for one thing - revenge. No love. No attachments. No weakness. I don't need anyone. At least, that's the story I tell myself. - RAVEN ~~~ People fear heartbreak, betrayal, death. But you know what I fear? A life with no direction - drifting in an endless sea where strength means nothing. Everyone believes I'm the strongest man alive. The truth? Even mountains crumble if they stand alone too long. I've won wars, built empires, crushed enemies. But none of it fills the emptiness gnawing inside me. I move. I breathe. I survive. But I don't live. Some nights, I think what I really need isn't power... but a reason. A gravity strong enough to pull me out of the ocean I'm sinking in. A person who sees me - not the monster the world bows to. Until then, I drift. Silent, controlled, starving for something I'll never admit I want. - ARES

The Beast's Possession [ON GOING...]
Alizey Tariq. Eighteen years old. The light of every room she walked into. The daughter every parent dreamed of, the sister every brother bragged about, and the friend everyone wished they had. Sweet. Innocent. Untouched by the dark realities of the world, living a life surrounded by love, laughter, and the kind of naivety that made her glow like a star in a moonless sky. She thought she knew what life was. She had no idea her real story was just about to begin. Khizer Shahid. Thirty years old. A man feared by many and loved by none. CEO by day, Mafia king by night. The world bowed to him - businessmen, politicians, criminals - yet he stood utterly alone, untouched by affection, incapable of tenderness. Life had carved him from stone, heartless and merciless, after a childhood drenched in blood and betrayal. At least, that's what he believed. Khizer wasn't looking for love. He didn't even believe he deserved it. But fate - cruel, merciless fate - had other plans. --- It started with a simple favor. Pick up his best friend's little sister from her university. A girl he hadn't even met before. A favor that would shatter everything he thought he knew about control, about power, about who he was. Because when Khizer Shahid's eyes landed on Alizey Tariq for the first time, it wasn't curiosity he felt. It wasn't interest. It was possession. Pure, primal, undeniable. In that single moment, he decided: She would be his. No matter what it took. By hook or by crook. By love or by hatred. He would tear down the world to have her, and God help anyone who stood in his way. When the cold-hearted beast finds himself bound to a childlike beauty... When complaints turn into pleas, When pain turns into an addiction, When hatred threatens to destroy what little love they have built, When the past refuses to stay buried, When the cost of loyalty is betrayal... Will he be able to hold onto her? Or will he lose the only salvation he ever had? *****

Redefined every time someone new uses it, and sometimes in a more vile and lascivious way. Love was never on the table. Completely erased from his vocabulary after his mother died an unforgiving death. However, sometimes the feeling can emerge from even the darkest places in the world. Twisted and depraved. Behind the closed doors of a kidnapper's home. Or from the void that swirls in the chest of someone's missing heart. Even between the forbidden love of an angel and a demon. Love can come in all forms, in all contexts, and can form from even the smallest smidge of scorching hate. There is never light without darkness. There is never yin without yang. There are never days without nights. There is never love without hate. There is never life without death. Even villains and demons can fall in love with heroes and angels. His salvation comes from her, and her destruction comes from him. Like clockwork, they are a match made in the universe; polar opposites, but the attraction is never stronger.Complete
